Alan Lord : The trouble with using metacity is has window previews. I also do not like its Alt Tab behaviour of highlighting window borders of the current window in alt tab list.
That is the only reason why I am sticking with compiz. I don't think is anything else out there which has Window Previews in Alt Tab. Please let me know if you know otherwise. In my case, I face weird problems with Classic/Flashback which are : When there are lot of windows open, after reaching around 10 to 15 windows, the mouse movement becomes quite sluggish. It actually becomes so bad that I feel like going back to 11.04 A quiting of docky and then compiz --replace works for some minutes and mouse movement is ok, but then after a few minutes it happens again. I have checked both TOP and memory and nothing seems to be a bottleneck. Sometimes when the mouse movement sluggishness is on extreme side, doing a compiz --replace just blanks the screen forcing to use the reset key on the computer because, with the Nvidia Drivers, those CTRL F1 to CTRL F6 windows do not work. On a side note can someone guide how to get those shortcuts to terminals working with the nvidia driver ? If it was not the Alt Tab window previews, then I would have abandoned Ubuntu/Gnome Desktop completely and gone to XFCE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1293384 Title: Compiz CPU usage dramatically increased in Ubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1293384/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
